    It works for me, but best is to ask the same question on Araknet if you find it difficult to connect. Anachronist (sysop) checks that one most frequently among any other netmail.

    ... Xerox Alto was the thing. Anything after we use is just a mere copy.

    It was working the following morning, I suppose it was just having a moment!

    I did consider Araknet, but at that moment I couldn't think of which board I could actually post to it from :D

    I only seem to have read access on the boards I frequent.

    Thanks for the tip though, I'll keep that in mind if I have trouble in the future! :)

    Hey, I'm only months late seeing this! It's rare that my board is down or locked, but it does happen. I never let it stay that way for long. :)

    Drop by some time and see what's new!
